Honda Spree and Elite 50 Forums

Hey everyone This is my first post and my first time really doin things to my spree its an 86 and just picked it up this weekend. Wat kind of oil should i put in the gearbox and where do i put it in at i didnt see anywhere to put it in but im sure theres somewhere. An also what kind of oil to you guys recomend for the engine? Thanks phil

2 stroke injection oil.

for the engine.. thats all i have to say about that.

sythetic for the scooter engine, im running motul.

Amsoil in my red rover.

Any engine oil is fine as long as it's injector oil. For the rearend; manual says 10-30 wt (car oil is fine), Jerry says use 2-stroke oil. Your pick.

where do you put the oil in at i didnt see a pug or anything and is there a drain plug to drain whats in there?

beside the tire on the engine case, near the casting # there is a 12mm bolt. that is trans fluid. fill to the bottom of the hole.

cool thanks alot.

Any comments on Lucas or Amsoil synthetic? I have some leftover Amsoil synthetic 10W-40 to use in the rear case. Any experience with either injector oil?

I would use 90 weight gear oul if you are going to do any kind of modidication to the motor.Even that an a modified dio loses it's vescocity.

klotz r50 or motul 600 for me.

This is a college scoot, not a project. I was under the impression that 10W-40 was sufficient in the rear.

that's what the manual says but i still use gear oil for gears.seems right to me.

Like a 75W-90? Seems a bit thicker than recommended 10W-40, no?

yeah but the gears are metal on metal.less vecocity more wear to the gears.
